there are several debug prints in firmware_loader/main.c:

./main.c:207:   pr_debug("%s: fw-%s fw_priv=%p\n", __func__, fw_name, fw_priv);
./main.c:245:                   pr_debug("batched request - sharing the same struct fw_priv and lookup for multiple requests\n");
./main.c:269:   pr_debug("%s: fw-%s fw_priv=%p data=%p size=%u\n",
./main.c:594:   pr_debug("%s: fw-%s fw_priv=%p data=%p size=%u\n",
./main.c:605:           pr_debug("%s: fw_name-%s devm-%p released\n",
./main.c:1175:  pr_debug("%s: %s\n", __func__, fw_name);
./main.c:1181:  pr_debug("%s: %s ret=%d\n", __func__, fw_name, ret);
./main.c:1214:  pr_debug("%s: %s\n", __func__, fw_name);
./main.c:1272:          pr_debug("%s: fw: %s\n", __func__, name);
./main.c:1389:  pr_debug("%s\n", __func__);
./main.c:1415:  pr_debug("%s\n", __func__);
